Family Pictures. Well, an attempt at least.

Remember when I said we have no idea how to use our camera? Well, here is all the proof you need. From blurry kids to wrong lighting to our F stop being too high or too low and the ISO not set where it needs to be....we are a hot hot hot camera mess.

Sunday night it was gorgeous out so I asked the kids to get dressed for a picture. They moaned and groaned which led me to yell and throw my hands up and say "forget it, it's ok, I'll just clean up after you all night instead." Uh huh. Good times.

Then I cooled down and tried it again. By this time the kids were scared totally on board with taking pictures so the, of course, got dressed with such happy hearts ;)

These are their Easter outfits. I have been wanting to take their picture in them since Easter. Hence the dresses are now WAY too short on a few of the girls.

So, here you go. Bad lighting, blurry faces, and one little boy who keeps us on our toes. We tried twice. We may have bribed them with birthday cake. (yes, Dan's birthday was over a week ago and I just made him his birthday cake on Sunday). By the second round of pictures it was too cold and Griffin had consumed too much sugar.

Enjoy.

We need help. We need camera help. We need a professional photographer. We need something. Please, someone, help us! For now these will have to do. In looking at these I am reminded how incredibly blessed we are. I needed to be reminded of that today. Thank you, God, for reminding me at just the right time.

About Me

Hi, I'm Susan!

Hi. I'm Susan! I am the lucky wife of one hunk o' hunk of burning love and the proud mom of 7 beautiful children. I am also the owner and founder of Fridays at the Farm. I have to be honest...I am not good with coming up with my own ideas, but I am really good at copying just about anything I see! I have a passion and a love from crafting! Even more so, I have a passion and a love for God! I am currently doing my best to craft as often as I can while being the Director of Children's Ministry and working full time! Did I mention I have 7 mouths to feed too 3 times a day??? I have been blessed beyond words by being a mom, helping kids learn about Jesus, and crafting my worries away! One of my most favorite things to do is be a guest host on Real Milwaukee where I get to use my talents to spread a little love by doing DIY segments. I know it all sounds perfect...but on any given day, I am a hot mess! I write this blog to keep it real. We are not perfect. We have a lot to learn. However, we have a lot of love and a passion for our family! Oh Happy Day!
